I see there is a workaround, which I havent fully played with yet, but requires doing configuration outside of the nconf interface. I'm concerned about having to perform work in nconf and at the cli, it makes troubleshooting difficult when we look into nconf for all the configuration flow.

in my opinion nconf is one of the best (if not the best) gui's for nagios config but the lack of this option in the gui is almost a deal breaker for using it...this is a MUST.
